Wednesday Night Storms Before A Much Cooler Push Of Air…
Highlights:
- Shower and storm chances increase Wednesday night
- Coolest air so far this season to close the work week
- Warm push of air early next week
Nice Today Before Wednesday Night Storms…Mid and high level cloudiness will continue to scoot through the Ohio Valley today. While we noted a few sprinkles during the predawn hours, the air remains dry and we should be rain-free today with increasing PM sunshine.
Wednesday will turn increasingly breezy as the day progresses and a cold front will help kick up scattered showers and thunderstorms Wednesday night into the early morning hours Thursday. Behind the front, the coolest air so far this season will press southeast and set us up for a chilly close to the week.
The cool air won’t stay around long as we flip our air flow back to the south over the weekend. Showers are a good bet Sunday followed by a gusty south wind and a summer-like high in the lower 80s Monday.
A couple of notes: It’s beginning to be that time of year again when we have to get used to the wind. As the jet continues to mature, storm systems will become more frequent as we go deeper into fall. Strong winds are a given and the increasingly busy nature of the pattern is a signal of changes brewing. While we’re still a couple weeks away from a wholesale pattern change, don’t be surprised if we undergo a rather dramatic flip in the pattern as October gives way to November. This sure doesn’t look like last year in any way, and, in fact, it’s easy to argue it’s the exact opposite when it comes to early season cold and potentially wintry weather…
Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:
- Snowfall: 0.00″
- Rainfall: 0.50″ – 0.75″

Another Round Of Storms This Afternoon…
Heaviest concentration of storms Tuesday was along the I-70 corridor and points south. We think today coverage of rain and thunderstorms will be more widespread across the state…
We’re off to a cool and quiet start this morning, but think things will turn rather busy yet again as early as the early-mid afternoon hours. Unsettled conditions will continue through the night.
Latest scans of the HRRR future-cast radar product suggests we need to monitor for high wind potential during the early to mid afternoon hours. We’ll keep a close eye on this.
The high resolution NAM future-cast radar is slower, but also shows strong to possibly severe storms into central IN late tonight.
The current SPC outlook highlights far southwestern IN for the chance of severe weather today. Don’t be surprised if this is expanded northeast with later updates today.
Rainfall potential today-tonight should feature many neighborhoods accumulating an additional inch, with some locally heavier totals.

Bumpy Ride This Week…
Highlights:
- Lots of sun through the daytime
- Storms rumble in late tonight
- Unsettled mid week pattern
- New storm delivers rain and wind this weekend
Beautiful Today; Storms Arrive Late Tonight…We couldn’t ask for better weather through the daytime today (despite a gusty SW wind), but chances for rather noisy thunderstorms increase late tonight into the predawn hours Tuesday. Unsettled conditions remain Tuesday, including scattered thunderstorms especially across the I-70 corridor and points south. Locally hefty downpours will be possible.
More widespread showers and embedded thunder are on tap Wednesday into Thursday, especially through the morning hours Thursday. Widespread 1″-1.5″ rain totals are a good bet between now and Thursday morning, with some locally heavier amounts.
We still think we get a briefly drier air mass in here to close the work week, but this won’t last long. Our next storm system is dialed up for a weekend arrival and will provide a stiff easterly breeze and rain Saturday PM through Sunday.
